ACS Clearwater To Salmon Rivers Relay For Life ResultsThe 2007 American Cancer Society’s Clearwater To Salmon Rivers Relay
For Life event was once again a wonderful success and many thanks go out
to each one of the committee chairpersons for all their hard work and countless
hours of volunteer time to make this event a success. Over $60,000
was raised from our area with more still coming in. The majority
of this money will go to research in the effort to make better treatments
for cancer patients and also in the endeavor to find a cure to stop this
disease which has affected so many of our local people. A portion
of the money raised also goes to the many programs that ACS sponsors and
there are plans in the works right now to utilize some of those programs
very soon. We have many, many corporate sponsors who are responsible
for helping to make our event happen. We are so proud of them and
want to thank them by shopping locally thus enabling them to continue to
sponsor this awesome event right here at home. We also have to thank
the 29 teams and their team captains for making our Relay the fun and exciting
event that it continues to be. You continue to make our local communities
very proud by coming up with new and innovative ideas of fundraising thus
making preparing for the actual event as fun and exciting beforehand as
well as during the Relay. On that note here are the results of the
